I like a little tannins in my water and atm my water is fairly gold in color like really weak tea because of the driftwood in my tank. I need to test the water today and was wondering if the colorants in the water would affect the readability of my test?

EDIT: It's a water test with the tube and additives of course, not the strips in case anyone was wondering. Also the reason why I am testing the water is because there it a weird cloudiness around that freakin moss ball that has been giving me so much grief.
